Happy Friday skrillas, yesterday morning Doodle woke up screaming at 5:00 AM due to some serious teething going on and I knew he was in a lot of pain. Let me precursor this by saying the only time he is snuggly is when he doesn't feel good or is sick......so I ran up to the nursery and scooped him up when he wrapped himself around me and buried his head in my shoulder. It was the biggest hug he had ever given me.......I held him so tight I could hear his heart beating. While in our embrace a feeling washed over me, for the FIRST time in my life all of my fears and the mistakes I've made seemed to disappear.

Sometimes all its takes is the love of your child to remind you how amazing life really is.....now that I've gotten all mushy on you I'll finish by saying this is the ensemble I wore to a desperately needed girls night last week with some friends who also remind me of how incredible life is. Pete also does a pretty good job of that (fyi Pete is the flamingo on my tee designed by the Man Repeller) and I love him, that is all :)

Hello! A couple of weeks ago I did a post on Spring transition pieces and you guys said it was very helpful so I figured I would do another one but this time on the tweed jacket! I love tweed jackets but done in a more modern way.....obviously I love them paired with casual denim. The first look is more flirty and great for going out.....simply put on a slinky tank and fierce heels and you are good to go!!

Another way to do a tweed jacket is to throw on a pair of casual denim and some interesting but still comfy flats and you are ready to take on the world (or your 19 month old :) ) in style!! Was this helpful? Is there another transition piece you would like to see styled? PS I can't freaking wait for the weather to warm up because Ima be rocking these blazers with short flirty rompers like every day.

Hello friends and happy Friday!!! I'm guest posting over on Domesticated Working Woman on Monday so be sure to head over there on Monday to see the full post on this outfit!!! PS thank you to Gabrielle from Look Sharp Sconnie for featuring me in her "Style Rules" post yesterday.....lurve her! Also, head over to the What2Wear facebook page to see me trying to scale this overpass muhahahahha

There are two kinds of people in the world...those that view fashion as art.....and those that don't.....if you are of the second category you should probably stop reading this and go check the stock market or something...just kidding, but seriously. I know people often claim to "love" fashion but there are few that I've come across that appreciate it in such a way. I'm very honored to be wearing this tee designed by Allison from A's Fashion Files because she is one of those people that shows her love of art and fashion and how they combine on a daily basis. That is all :)

PS do I have the best photographer or what?! Molly is like a pregnant power house!!!!

You guys know I lurve my bright colors, prints and pattern mixing but there are those (very) rare mornings that I wake up and crave simplicity. I think there is a fine line between simple and boring.....a simple outfit can be chic if you play with interesting shapes and clean lines (thank you Sheree for teaching me that :). PS I'm heading to my parents house at the beach today so be sure to follow mine and Doodle's seaside shenanigans on instagram :)
